What are Foot and Atmosphere

Definition of Foot

A foot is a unit of length in the imperial and US customary systems of measurement. It is symbolized as 'ft' and is equivalent to 12 inches or 0.3048 meters. Traditionally, the foot was based on the length of a human foot and has been used in various cultures for measuring length, height, and distance. In modern times, it is commonly used in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom for everyday measurements, construction, and land surveying.

Definition of Atmosphere

An atmosphere (atm) is a unit of pressure defined as 101325 Pa (Pascal). It is based on the average atmospheric pressure at sea level on Earth. The atmosphere unit is crucial for various scientific calculations, including physics, chemistry, and engineering, as it provides a standard reference for pressure. Besides its scientific applications, it is also used in meteorology and aviation to describe atmospheric conditions.
